ZORBAX Reversed-Phase HPLC Column Selection Flow ChartFor small and large moleculesMost�chromatographers�use�reversed-phase�HPLC�as�one�of�their�key�analysis�techniques.�Reversed-phase�HPLC�can�be�used�to�analyze�ionic�and�nonionicanalytes.�Therefore�this�ZORBAX�Column�Selection�Flow�Chart�will�focus�on�reversed-phase�columns.�To�more�easily�select�a�reversed-phase�column�formethod�development�of�small�and�large�molecules,�follow�the�outline�on�these�pages.

This�flow�chart�provides�information�on�choosing�an�initial�column�for�method�development�of�small�molecule�and�protein�and�peptide�samples,�and�includesdecisions�on�bonded�phase�and�column�configuration.

* First�choice�for�use�on�the�1290�Infinity�LC�or�other�UHPLC�instruments�with�1000+�bar�pressure�limit.

First choice of a packing pore size is based on the size of molecules to be analyzed. Typical small molecules can diffuse easily in and out ofstandard 80-120Å pore packings, but larger peptides and proteins may not. For this reason, it is recommended to use 300Å pore packings (300SB)

for isocratic or gradient separations of peptides and proteins.

MW < 3000 MW > 3000

Eclipse Plus C18 or Poroshell 120 EC-C18

StableBond 300SB-C18

A C18 is recommended as the starting column bonded phase for most samples since it maximizes retention for moderately polar to non-polarcompounds. Shorter chain phases should be considered if resolution cannot be optimized with a C18 phase or if you are analyzing larger proteins,

or very hydrophobic compounds that are difficult to elute from C18 with conventional reversed-phase solvents. Start with Poroshell 120 EC-C18 or Eclipse Plus RRHT/RRHD for fast LC performance.

Column and Mobile Phase Guidelines: Reversed-PhaseHPLC�columns�consist�of�two�parts:�the�column�chemistry�and�hardware.�For�the�proper�column�chemistry,consult�the�catalog�section�for�each�type�of�bonded�phase.�For�choosing�column�hardware�and�particlesizes,�consult�the�section�on�column�sizes�and�rapid�separations,�including�Agilent�ZORBAX�Rapid�Resolution�HT,�Solvent�Saver,�Capillary�and�PrepHT�columns.

Pore Size SelectionChoose�a�column�packing�with�small�pore�(60-120Å)�if�the�solute�molecular�weight�is�less�than�about�3000.Otherwise,�use�column�packing�with�the�300Å�pore�size.

Particle Size SelectionThe�typical�particle�size�for�HPLC�columns�is�5�µm�with�3.5�µm�and�smaller,�now�common�in�methoddevelopment.�If�high-speed�analyses�or�higher�resolution�analyses�are�required,�packing�with�1.8�µm�and�2-3�µm�particles�can�be�used.�Shorter�columns�with�these�particles�can�produce�faster�high-resolutionseparations,�with�the�1.8�µm�particle�size�providing�the�highest�efficiency�and�2.7�µm�superficially�porousproviding�similar�results.�With�1.8,�2.7,�3.5�and�5�µm�particle�sizes�to�choose�from,�start�with�the�smallestparticle�size�for�your�HPLC�or�UHPLC�–�400�bar,�600�bar,�or�1200�bar�–�to�achieve�the�best�results.

Column ConfigurationChoosing�the�best�column�size�for�method�development�has�changed�dramatically�in�the�past�few�years.Smaller�3.0�mm�id�or�2.1�mm�id�columns�are�now�used�more�than�4.6�mm�id�to�lower�solvent�use�andachieve�compatibility�with�MS�detectors.�And�shorter�50,�75�and�100�mm�long�columns�can�be�a�greatstarting�choice,�with�longer�columns�used�only�when�more�resolution�is�needed�or�when�3.5�and�5�µmparticle�sizes�are�used.

Base MaterialThe�base�material�for�an�LC�column�is�most�often�high�purity�silica�material�with�totally�porous�particles�suchas�that�used�in�most�Agilent�columns,�including�ZORBAX,�Pursuit,�and�Polaris.�However,�more�choices�areavailable,�including�polymer�material�with�high�pH�stability�used�in�PLRP-S�columns�and�superficially�poroussilica�particles�such�as�those�used�in�Poroshell�120�columns.�The�high�purity�Type�B�silicas,�including�theZORBAX�Rx-Sil�used�in�ZORBAX�Eclipse�Plus,�and�superficially�porous�Poroshell�120,�are�an�excellent�firstchoice�for�most�methods.�Type�A�silicas,�such�as�ZORBAX�SIL,�used�in�Original�ZORBAX�columns,�are�stillmanufactured�and�used�in�many�methods.

Bonded PhaseA�good�first�choice�for�bonded�phase�is�C18�or�C8,�and�the�recommended�starting�column�choices�areEclipse�Plus�C18�or�Poroshell�120�EC-C18.�These�two�choices�provide�excellent�peak�shape�and�can�beused�over�the�pH�range�2-9,�accommodating�most�typical�LC�and�LC/MS�mobile�phases.�If�the�samplesolutes�of�interest�are�not�adequately�separated�on�these�columns,�CN�and�Phenyl�columns�–�includingPhenyl,�Phenyl-Hexyl�and�Diphenyl�–�may�offer�significant�differences�in�selectivity�from�straight-chain�alkylphases�to�effect�the�separation.

In�general,�larger�solutes,�such�as�proteins,�are�best�separated�on�short-chain�reversed-phase�columns�(C3,�CN,�C8)�and�peptides�and�small�molecules�are�separated�on�longer-chain�columns�(C18).�However,there�are�many�cases�where�this�conventional�wisdom�does�not�apply.�For�example,�peptides�can�also�beeffectively�separated�using�short-chain�columns,�and�hydrophobic�peptides�can�show�better�recovery�on�longer-chain�phases.�Therefore,�it�is�best�to�initially�select�a�phase�in�the�middle�of�the�hydrophobicspectrum�(e.g.,�C8),�then�change�to�a�more�hydrophobic�phase�or�more�hydrophilic�phase�depending�oninitial�results�and�solubility�properties�of�your�sample.

PolymersWhen�a�column�is�needed�that�can�operate�at�very�low�and�very�high�pH,�polymeric�packings�provide�an�alternative�to�silica-based�materials.�Polymeric�particles�are�good�for�small-scale�chromatography,particularly�LC/MS,�as�they�are�chemically�stable�and�do�not�leach�soluble�or�particulate�species.��Reversed-phase�spherical�polymeric�packings�used�in�Agilent�PLRP-S�columns,�for�example,�are�based�on�astyrene/divinylbenzene�copolymer�with�an�inherently�hydrophobic�surface.�No�bonded�phase�is�required�forreversed-phase�chromatography�with�polymeric�particles.�These�rigid�macroporous�particles�can�be�coatedand�derivatized�to�give�a�range�of�functionalities,�including�weak�and�strong�cation�and�anion�exchangers.

pH and Mobile PhaseThe�choice�of�mobile�phase�for�a�reversed-phase�system�starts�with�selecting�the�organic�modifier.Acetonitrile�is�the�most�commonly�used�organic�modifier.�However,�selectivity�differences�and�sampleretention�will�vary�significantly�among�mobile�phases�containing�acetonitrile,�methanol,�and�tetrahydrofuran(THF).�Sample�solubility�is�likely�to�differ�in�such�solvents�and�dictate�use�of�a�specific�solvent�or�solvents.�UV�detection�at�certain�wavelengths�is�not�possible�with�certain�modifiers�(e.g.,�methanol�at�200�nm).

Both�pH�and�ionic�strength�of�the�aqueous�portion�of�mobile�phases�are�important�parameters�in�developingrugged�methods�that�are�not�sensitive�to�small�variations�in�conditions.�With�ionic�compounds,�retention�oftypical�species�shows�significant�changes�with�pH.�It�is�very�important�to�control�pH�in�such�reversed-phasesystems�to�stabilize�retention�and�resolution.�A�pH�between�2�and�4�generally�provides�the�most�stableconditions�for�retention�vs.�small�changes�in�pH,�and�this�pH�is�recommended�for�starting�methoddevelopment�for�most�samples,�including�basic�compounds�and�typical�weak�acids.

Working with LC/MS

Since�many�LC/MS�analyses�are�run�at�lower�flow�rates�(typically�from�µL/min�flow�rates�up�to�1�mL/min),moving�to�smaller�internal�diameter�columns�is�the�best�choice�for�the�user.�Agilent’s�Solvent�Saver�(3.0�mm�id)�and�narrow�bore�(2.1�mm�id)�will�often�result�in�lower�solvent�usage�for�the�method,�and�are�excellent�options�for�high�resolution�and�higher�sensitivity�than�the�larger�id�columns.

Most�often,�the�best�bonded�phase�choice�is�an�endcapped�C18�phase.�Eclipse�Plus�C18�is�a�highperformance�endcapped�C18�phase�available�in�sub-2�µm�RRHD�and�RRHT�column�formats.�For�fast�high-throughput�separations�with�LC/MS,�Poroshell�120�EC-C18�is�an�excellent�choice.�Poroshell�has�a�larger�frit,�so�it’s�well�suited�for�dirtier�LC/MS�samples,�such�as�blood�plasma,�which�may�often�clogcolumns�with�smaller�porosity�frits.��

Both�Eclipse�Plus�C18�and�Poroshell�120�EC-C18�phases�are�stable�over�a�wide�pH�range�and�arecompatible�with�the�volatile�buffers�such�as�acetic�and�formic�acids.

When�choosing�HPLC�columns�for�LC/MS,�chromatographers�often�need�to�consider�several�aspects�oftheir�method�and�separation,�typically�including�resolution,�flow�rate,�and�stationary�phase�choice.�Often,�for�relatively�simple�analytes,�shorter�high�resolution�columns�are�the�best�choice.�These�columns�allow�forhigh�throughput�while�maintaining�high�separation�efficiency.�Narrow�bore�Rapid�Resolution�High�Definition(RRHD)�for�separations�(>�600�bar)�and�Poroshell�120�columns�(<�600�bar)�offer�high�resolution�even�inshorter�columns�dimensions.�For�more�difficult�samples,�users�should�seek�longer�column�lengths.

Transferring your method to a high efficiency columnHigh�efficiency�columns�for�UHPLC/Fast�LC�will�help�you�increase�your�analytical�speed�and�resolution.Depending�on�the�instrument�configuration�you�are�using,�you�may�need�to�make�a�few�adjustments�to�get�the�most�from�these�columns.

Because�of�their�high�efficiency,�very�narrow�peaks�elute�from�higher�efficiency�columns�quickly.�While�modern�HPLC�instrumentation�and�data�systems�are�able�to�capture�the�benefits�of�these�particles,attention�to�instrumental�configuration�is�important�to�get�the�best�results.�

Steps�to�transfer�your�method:

Check the specifications that came with your instrument –�Your�instrument�may�already�beconfigured�appropriately�for�high�efficiency�columns.�If�not,�then�continue.

optimize the data collection rate for LC and LC/MS (at least 40 Hz detector with fastresponse time for uV) –�Set�the�detector�to�the�fastest�setting,�then�to�the�second�fastest�setting�and�evaluate�if�the�resolution�is�different.�

For�the�Agilent�1290�Infinity�LC,�in�situations�requiring�extremely�low�dead�volumes,�use�the�ultra-low�dispersion�kit,�which�includes�an�ultra-lowdispersion�flow�cell�and�0.08�mm�id�capillaries.

use a semi-micro or micro-flow cell –�Smaller�volume�flow�cells�such�as�the�semi-micro�(6�mm/5�µL)or�micro�(3�mm/2�µL)�are�recommended�for�best�performance.�There�are�newer�cartridge�flow�cells�(e.g.�the�Ultra�Low-Dispersion�Max-Light�Ultra�Flow�Cell,�P/N�G4212-60007)�designed�to�optimize�UHPLC�instrument�performance.

Minimize injection sample dispersion in the column –�Use�an�injection�solvent�with�solvent�strengththat�is�equivalent�to�or�weaker�than�the�mobile�phase,�especially�when�using�an�isocratic�method.�This�isgood�practice�in�general�for�any�column,�and�more�important�with�high�efficiency�columns.

Scale your gradient profile and injection volume –�If�using�gradient�elution,�scale�the�gradient�profile�and�injection�volume�to�the�new�smaller�column�to�quickly�transfer�the�method�and�avoidoverloading.�For�isocratic�and�gradient�elution,�make�sure�that�you�scale�the�injection�volume�to�match�the�overall�column�volume.

Minimize tubing volume in the instrument –�Use�Red�(0.12�mm�id)�tubing�instead�of�Green�(0.17�mm�id)�as�it�has�only�half�of�the�volume�that�the�sample�has�to�travel�through.�This�cuts�down�extra�column�band�broadening.�Ensure�that�your�connections�are�as�short�as�possible.�The�key�locations�to�check�are:

guard Columns

Guard�columns�can�help�extend�the�life�of�your�analytical�column.�Choosing�to�use�guard�columns�can�helpreduce�operating�expenses,�by�reducing�the�frequency�of�analytical�column�replacement.

The�guard�column�prevents�damage�caused�by�particulate�matter�and�strongly�adsorbed�material.�To�maintain�an�adequate�capacity�for�sample�impurities,�choose�a�guard�column�with�an�internal�diametersimilar�to�the�column�internal�diameter.�Ideally,�the�packing�of�the�guard�column�should�be�the�same�as�theanalytical�column�so�that�the�chromatography�of�the�analytical�column�is�not�altered.�

Judging�when�to�replace�a�guard�column�can�be�difficult.�As�a�rough�guide,�if�plate�number,�pressure�orresolution�change�by�more�than�10%,�the�guard�column�probably�needs�replacing.�You�will�need�to�make�a�judgment�call�on�how�often�to�replace�your�guard�columns�based�on�your�application�type.�It�is�alwayspreferable�to�change�the�guard�column�sooner�rather�than�later.

The�Value�of�Guard�Columns

Guard�columns�contribute�to�the�separation,�so�you�should�include�a�guard�column�in-line�during�method�development.

Agilent�UHPLC�guards�provide�protection�for�high-efficiency�Poroshell�120�and�ZORBAX�RRHD�and�RRHT�columns,�without�reducing�performance.�Part�numbers�for�all�guard�columns�are�incorporated�into�the�different�product�family�tables.

Agilent ZORBAX Eclipse Plus columns provide the ultimate in performance for silica-based columns. Peak shape is excellent for the most challenging basic compounds, improving efficiency and resolution withthese sample types. These results are achieved by improvements in the silica manufacturing and bondingtechnology, which is completely controlled by Agilent.

Because of their high level of performance, Eclipse Plus columns are the ideal first choice for methoddevelopment of all samples. If you need to achieve fast method development and superior productivity, thenchoose a column with high-resolution 1.8 µm particles. For standard methods, conventional 5 µm and RapidResolution 3.5 µm columns are your best choice. With all particle sizes, easy method transfer is possible.

With more rigorous QA and QC testing, column lot-to-lot reproducibility is also improved, resulting in long-term reliable results for all analyses.

ZORBAX Eclipse XDB• Four selectivity choices for method development optimization• Good peak shape for basic, acidic and neutral compounds• High performance over a wide pH range – pH 2-9• Particle sizes from 1.8 to 7 µm• Long lifetime with eXtra Dense Bonding and double endcapping

Agilent ZORBAX Eclipse XDB columns – C18, C8, Phenyl and CN – provide four bonded phase choices formethod development optimization. These columns provide good peak shape over a wide pH range (2-9) for additional method development flexibility with one family of columns. Eclipse XDB columns can be usedfor method development at low pH (2-3) and the same column can be used for method development in themid pH (6-8) region. In the mid pH region residual silanols are more active and tailing interactions are morelikely. To overcome these interactions, Eclipse XDB columns are eXtra Densely Bonded and doubleendcapped through a proprietary process to cover as many active silanols as possible. The result is superiorpeak shape of basic compounds from pH 2-9. Eclipse XDB columns are available in 1.8, 3.5, 5 and 7 µmparticle sizes for high speed, high resolution, analytical and prep scale separations.

Eclipse XDB columns are stable over a wide pH range. At low pH an Eclipse endcapped column is extremely stable and shows equivalent stability to a non-endcapped column,SB-C8, at pH 3. The columns were purged with a pH 3 mobile phase at 60 °C. Then they were tested with a strongly basic compound to determine if the endcapping or bondedphase had been hydrolyzed from the silica surface. The Eclipse XDB column was very stable, as shown by the consistency of the retention of amitriptyline over the 12,000 columnvolumes of the test. Another endcapped column shows less stability under these same conditions.

Double endcapping, dense bonding and the durable Rx-Sil particles (sol-type) combine to provide long lifetime at pH 7 when compared to single endcapped sil-gel columns used here. The conditions used for this test – high temperature (60 °C) and high salt concentration (250 mM), accelerate the dissolution of silica, causing premature failure of the sil-gel type column.

Eclipse XDB and StableBond columns are based on the same silica but have different bonding and endcapping. Therefore, they can have very different selectivity for the samesample under the same conditions, as this example shows.

This separation of sunscreens on all three Eclipse XDB bonded phases – C18, C8 and Phenyl – shows that different bonded phases can be used to optimize a separation. While allthree bonded phases provide an adequate separation, the Eclipse XDB-Phenyl provides a different peak elution order and a much shorter overall analysis time. All three bondedphases also provide excellent peak shape with no mobile phase additives.

ZORBAX 80Å StableBond• Longest column lifetime and best reproducibility for low pH separations – down to pH 1 • Patented stable column chemistry allows use at high temperature and low pH without degradation• Six different bonded phases provide broad selectivity – SB-C18, SB-C8, SB-CN, SB-Phenyl, SB-C3,

and SB-Aq• High purity (Type B) silica for good peak shape

Agilent ZORBAX StableBond columns use patented, unique, nonfunctional silanes with bulky diisobutyl (SB-C18) or diisopropyl (SB-C8, SB-C3, SB-Phenyl, SB-CN, and SB-Aq) side chain groups that stericallyprotect the key siloxane bond to the silica surface from hydrolytic attack at low pH. StableBond packingmaterials are not endcapped in order to provide exceptional stability and to maximize lifetime andreproducibility under acidic mobile phase conditions. The high purity, low acidity silica provides excellentpeak shape with acidic, basic and neutral compounds making StableBond columns an excellent choice forlow pH method development. ZORBAX StableBond columns are compatible with all common mobilephases, including very high aqueous mobile phases.

At pH 6-8, highest column stability for all silica-based columnsis obtained by operating at temperatures <40 °C and using lower buffer concentrations in the range of 0.01-0.02 M. Atmid-range pH, Eclipse Plus, Eclipse XDB and Bonus-RP are recommended.

As an indicator of column breakdown, retention timeof toluene was measured after purging the columnwith mobile phase. Only the StableBond SB-C18 isunchanged after three working months of use underthese very low pH (0.8) and high temperature (90 °C)conditions. ZORBAX Rx-C18 also provides a stablematrix, and can be used as an alternative selectivity to StableBond SB-C18.

• Recommended for alternate selectivity at low pH relative to Eclipse Plus C18, Eclipse XDB-C18 andStableBond SB-C18; for higher temperature applications, StableBond is recommended

• Higher carbon load than SB-C18 columns (12% vs. 10%)• High stability and good peak shape for low pH applications (up to pH 8)• Manufactured using dimethyloctadecylsilane and non-endcapped• ZORBAX Rx-C8 is the same product as SB-C8

An Rx-C18 column is used for this USP analysis of diazepam and the internal standardethylparaben. The Solvent Saver 3.0 mm id Rx-C18 column reduces solvent usage by 60%over what would be used if the analysis was done on a 4.6 x 250 mm column.

ZORBAX 80Å Extend-C18• High efficiency and long life at high pH – up to pH 11.5• Unique bidentate bonding and double endcapping provides high pH stability• More efficiency and better peak shape than polymer-based columns• Improve retention, resolution and peak shape of basic compounds• High sensitivity for LC/MS separations of peptides

The Agilent ZORBAX Extend-C18 column uses a novel bidentate C18-C18 bonding technology tomake it possible to develop high-resolution separations at high pH with a silica-based column. At high pH, non-charged basic compounds will not interact with the underlying silica. The result is high efficiency separations with superior peak shape and improved resolution. High pH separationsare also the best choice for compounds that are more stable or more soluble in high pH solutions.Some of the mobile phase buffer options for high pH include triethylamine, pyrrolidine, glycine, borateand ammonium hydroxide. Ammonium hydroxide at pH 10.5 is an excellent mobile phase modifier forthe LC/MS of peptides and small molecules with improved sensitivity compared with TFA containingmobile phase at low pH. The Extend-C18 column is stable from pH 2-11.5 with good peak shape forall types of compounds. Extend-C18 columns also provide an additional selectivity choice at low pH.

ZORBAX Bonus-RP• Excellent peak shape for challenging basic compounds at low and mid pH• Unique reversed-phase selectivity• Novel bonding technology with embedded polar group and steric protection• Usable in 100% aqueous mobile phases

The Agilent ZORBAX Bonus-RP column has a polar amide group embedded in a long alkyl chain. This novel bonding reduces interactions between basic compounds and the silica support, improving peak shape for the most difficult basic compounds. Peak shape and column lifetime are further improved by triple endcapping. In addition, diisopropyl side groups provide steric protection against acid hydrolysis for good lifetime at low pH. The Bonus-RP column provides an alternate selectivity to C18 and C8 alkylbonded phases.

Bonus-RP eliminates peak tailing of these basic compounds in comparison to a typical alkyl C8 bonded phase. In the mid-pH region, residual silanols can interact more stronglywith basic compounds to cause peak tailing. The polar group in the Bonus-RP bonded phase eliminates peak tailing of these basic compounds by reducing interactions withresidual silanols.

Pursuit HPLC ColumnsBeginning in drug discovery and drug metabolism, Pursuit columns are ideal for analyzing lead compoundsand biological samples. The column's performance is due to the unique combination of advanced bondingchemistry and ultra-high purity silica. These factors combine to provide rapid separations with excellent firsttime resolution and symmetrical peaks for polar compounds, whether at pH 1.5 or 10. Additionally, the needfor ion-pairing agents such as TFA is often eliminated, thus maximizing the performance of single andparallel multi-channel LC/MS systems.

Culminating in QC, Pursuit is ideal for implementing dependable trouble-free analysis of raw materials andapproved drugs. Rigorous control and validation of each step in the manufacturing process ensures columnreproducibility. With Pursuit, your laboratory can spend its energy on producing results.

Special columns, such as Pursuit PFP (for very polar compounds) and Pursuit PAH (environmental), give youthe extra selectivities you need for your most challenging applications.

Pursuit XRs

Pursuit XRs UltraFor the ultimate in speed and good resolution on any instrument, we designed the Pursuit XRs Ultra aroundan optimized 2.8 µm particle and an advanced packing procedure. Now you can decrease your run timewhile maintaining resolution. Lower backpressure allows high flow rates to be used, and the 2.8 µmparticles of ultra-pure silica delivers 10-15% higher efficiency than 3 µm columns.

For LC/MS and high throughput applications, the Pursuit column is built on the larger 200Å pore size silica.High ligand density delivers up to 40% faster separations without sacrificing resolution. This is accomplishedby optimizing mass transfer with the larger pore size.

Pursuit XRs columns are for performance in analytical R&D, QC and preparative applications. Combininghigh ligand density with a 100Å pore size, high surface area silica, Pursuit XRs columns are designed toincrease productivity, as they offer maximum loadability, excellent stability and easy scalability whilemaintaining superior resolution.

Polaris HPLC ColumnsIn areas like drug discovery where target compounds are increasingly polar, it is critical to have a reversed-phase column that performs well under aqueous conditions. Retention is critical, but cannot come with troublesome secondary interactions. Likewise, phase collapse and shifting retention times need to be avoided. The answer is our Polaris line of polar-modified columns.

From the collapse-resistant pore structure of our base silica, to the "wettability" engineered into the bonded phases, Polaris columns have been designed for high aqueous conditions. The combination of high phase density bonding, ultra pure silica, and silanol shielding leads to excellent peak shape amongpolar-modified columns.

As a family, Polaris offers a variety of polar modifications in both C18 and C8 chemistries.

Polaris C18-APolaris C18-A is the best starting place for separations where the benefits of polar-modified columns are desired. The polar modifications of C18-A help it avoid poor peak shape and retention issues in loworganic conditions.

Polaris C8-APolaris C8-A offers an alternative selectivity to standard C8 phases and has a lower hydrophobicity thanPolaris C18-A, making it ideal for polar samples, or faster overall analysis times.

Polaris C18-EtherPolaris C18-Ether offers an alternative selectivity to Polaris C18-A and standard C18 phases, and typicallydelivers increased retention of polar compounds away from the void volume.

Polaris C8-EtherPolaris C8-Ether offers an alternative selectivity to Polaris C8-A with particular utility for hydrogen bonding compounds.

Agilent tC-C18(2) and HC-C18(2)For cost-conscious chromatographers who need traditional LC columns and don't need the individual testing of ZORBAX, Pursuit or Polaris columns, the Agilent TC(2)/HC(2) columns provide an alternative.

TC-C18(2)Agilent TC-C18(2) is the ideal choice for complex natural product extract samples, traditional medicines and environmental samples or any sample where you need to analyze mixtures of polar and non-polarcompounds, including strong basic compounds.

• Lower carbon load – 12%• Ideal for polar compounds and gradient separations that start at low % organic or cover a wide

organic range• Good choice for samples dissolved in water, or mostly water• Use with most common mobile phases, including formic acid, acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)

and phosphate buffers with acetonitrile and methanol as the organic modifiers• Excellent performance from pH 2-8

HC-C18(2)Agilent HC-C18(2) is a more retentive C18 with a higher carbon load. An excellent value alternative to other high carbon load columns, it also provides superior peak shape for basic compounds.

• Higher carbon load – 17% – provides greater retention for moderately polar and non-polar compounds

• Ideal for non-polar compounds and separations that start at mid-level % organic (at least greater than 10% organic)

• Good choice for industrial samples or samples dissolved in organic/mostly organic solvents• Stable over a very wide pH range (2-9) for maximum flexibility

The PLRP-S family of columns consists of a range of pore sizes and particle sizes, all with identical chemistryand fundamental adsorptive characteristics. The particles are inherently hydrophobic, therefore no bondedphase, alkyl ligand is required for reversed-phase separations. This gives a highly reproducible material thatis free from silanols and heavy metal ions. Columns within the extensive product range are suitable for microseparations, including both bottom-up and top-down proteomics, analytical separations, and preparativepurifications. In addition, process columns can be packed with bulk media.

• HILIC column for good retention of small, polar analytes• Based on Eclipse Plus silica for excellent peak shape• High sensitivity for LC/MS applications • Recommended for EPA Method 1694

Agilent ZORBAX HILIC Plus columns are for use in hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC)applications, which are typically used for the retention and resolution of small polar compounds. HILIC Pluscolumns are non-bonded silica columns based on the high performance silica used in ZORBAX Eclipse Pluscolumns. This silica provides excellent peak shape, critical for many polar, basic analytes. These columnsship prepared for use in HILIC mode – containing acetonitrile:water – in order to reduce the extensiveequilibration typically required for HILIC separations. HILIC Plus columns are available in a 3.5 µm particlesize for high resolution and in 2.1 and 4.6 mm id for compatibility with mass spectrometers or with standardUV detectors.

Hi-Plex columns are engineered with monodisperse sulfonated particles, creating a high-performancemedia uniquely suited to stringent USP methods for analyzing carbohydrates, alcohols and organic acids.Unlike the ZORBAX NH2 column used for carbohydrate analysis with an acetonitrile:water mobile phase, Hi-Plex ligand-exchange columns provide more resolution for mono- and disaccharides due to theinteraction of the hydroxyl groups with the metal ion associated with the cation-exchange functionalityof the sulfonic acid group.

Hi-Plex Columns for Carbohydrate analysis• Agilent's recommended column for accurate, low-pressure analysis of typical carbohydrates,

providing leading-edge features for reliable quantitative and qualitative analysis• Enable reduced column operating pressures for repeatable performance and longer column life• Wide range of ligand counter ions and column configurations meet requirements of challenging

organic applications• Simplified HPLC system requirements through isocratic separation capabilities; excellent

batch-to-batch reproducibility for ultimate confidence in your results• Can be used with water or diluted acid as an eluent• Available in 8 µm and 10 µm particle sizes in a range of choices for USP media types – L17,

L19, L34 and L58

The least complicated LC methods for detecting sugars, sugar alcohols and organic acids call for ligand-exhange columns with a simple mobile phase. However, the wide particle size distribution of conventional resins can lead to high backpressures and reduced productivity.

USP methods specify the type of HPLC media and column dimensions which should be used for the analysis. The Hi-Plex product range has four materials that comply with USP definitions.

Strong cation-exchange resin consisting of sulfonated, cross-linked styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer in the hydrogen form, 7 to 11 µm in diameter – Hi-Plex H.

Strong cation-exchange resin consisting of sulfonated, cross-linked styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer in the calcium form, 9 µm in diameter – Hi-Plex Ca and Hi-Plex Ca (Duo).

Strong cation-exchange resin consisting of sulfonated, cross-linked styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer in the lead form, about 9 µm in diameter – Hi-Plex Pb.

Strong cation-exchange resin consisting of sulfonated, cross-linked styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer in the sodium form, 6 to 30 µm diameter – Hi-Plex Na and Hi-Plex Na (Octo).

In addition to the standard column sizes, the media is also packed in specific column dimensions for different USP methods, including sugar alcohol analysis.

For some application areas there are several column options, and the choice of the most appropriate Hi-Plex media will depend on sample matrix and exact carbohydrate composition.

What is a biocolumn? Biochromatography columns, or biocolumns, are liquid chromatography columns used for the separation of biological compounds such as peptides and proteins, oligonucleotides and polynucleotides, and otherbiomolecules and complexes. Biocolumns are specifically designed for biomolecule analysis with larger pore sizes to accommodate the larger molecule sizes. Media is designed to minimize non-specific binding of analytes for improved recovery. Separation mechanisms are chosen to either retain biological function so bioactivity is not lost during analysis, or to deliberately denature for primary structure characterization.

Typically, HPLC has been used to separate biomolecules. Now, advanced techniques such as UHPLC arebecoming a popular choice because multiple separation mechanisms are needed in the characterization ofbiomolecules. Therefore, Agilent offers advanced chemistries developed specifically for the separation ofbiomolecules using size exclusion, reversed-phase, ion-exchange, and affinity functionalities, all of which arecovered in this section of the catalog.

Proteins are complex molecules that require multiple techniques to provide full characterization. They exist as three-dimensional structures and it is thisstructure that confers their biological activity.

The sequence of the amino acid chains defines the primary structure of the protein. Hydrogen bonding between amino acids of the primary structure thenconfers a secondary structure typically in the form of alpha helices and pleated sheets. A further series of interactions, hydrogen bonding, ionic, hydrophobicand disulphide bridges, between regions of the secondary structure, then provides the tertiary protein structure, or three-dimensional conformation. If theprotein is composed of a number of amino acid chains, the interaction between these chains gives the quaternary structure.

When looking at methods for protein characterization, it is therefore clear from Figure 1 that techniques will be required that characterize the protein in itsnative state, without disrupting the tertiary and quaternary structures. We also need techniques for assessing the primary amino acid sequence, in the fullydenatured state with the three-dimensional structure stripped away.

The environment of the protein can influence, stabilize, or disrupt the structure of the protein. Factors to consider include pH, temperature, saltconcentrations, aqueous or organic solvent content, and for some proteins, the presence of a stabilizing small molecule or metal ion. Protein structure can also be disrupted by the use of sulfhydryl reducing agents to break -S-S- bonds or chaotropic agent, like urea or guanidine HCI. With the complexity of proteins and the intramolecular interactions that determine the three-dimensional structure, you can also expect that there will be intermolecularassociations between protein molecules and other molecular entities and the surfaces with which they come into contact. This can result in proteincomplexes, aggregation (with possible precipitation), and deposition on surfaces, including those of the HPLC column and system. Therefore, you should consider the handling and environment in which the protein is maintained.

The ratio of individual amino acids determines the net charge of the protein molecule.The pH at which the net charge is zero is called the isoelectric point (pI). When thesolution pH is less than the pI, the protein will be positively charged (acidic), and whenthe solution pH is greater than the pI, the protein is negatively charged (basic). For ion-exchange analysis, we recommend the eluent pH be at least one pH unit away from its pI. Protein analysis using ion-exchange columns requires bufferedmobile phase and either salt gradients or pH gradients for elution.

Peptide Separations

Peptide mapping is required for the characterization of proteins. It is used to confirm the identity of a proteinand to identify and quantify post-translational modifications.

The purified protein is first digested using an enzyme, such as trypsin, yielding a range of peptide fragments.The specificity of the enzyme cleavage produces a fingerprint of peptides which is characteristic of thatprotein. Identification of the peptide fragments confirms the identity of the protein, and changes in theprofile of the peptide digest can be used to identify post-translational modifications to that protein that may have occurred during the manufacturing or purification processes.

Reversed-phase UHPLC/HPLC is the preferred technique for the analysis of peptide digests with either MS or UV detection. LC/MS is used for the identification of the peptide fragments and determination of sequence coverage whereas LC/UV is more commonly used for peptide map comparisons in themonitoring/QC segments. To achieve sufficient resolution for quantification and identification, longer columnlengths or higher efficiency particles such as the sub-2 µm ZORBAX RRHD, or superficially porous Poroshellare recommended.

Peptide digests are complex mixtures, and for complete coverage, i.e. resolution of the individual peptides, a high efficiency/high resolution column is required. The peptide fragments can range in size andhydrophobicity, so Agilent offers several columns for peptide mapping. There are three options: pore sizes,particle sizes, and superficially porous and fully porous for UHPLC separations.

Separation of Natural and Synthetic PeptidesPurification columns and media are required for the isolation and analysis of natural and synthetic peptides. Purity and recovery determination of the isolated or purified peptide requires the use of highefficiency columns. The primary technique used for the isolation and purification, and analysis, is reversed-phase HPLC.

The fractions from a purification or isolation workflow and the final peptide product are analyzed for purity using high efficiency columns. The peptides will vary in size, charge and hydrophobicity and so, as with peptide mapping applications, Agilent offers a range of columns to provide optimum separations of the full range of peptides. For small peptides, typically less than 10 amino acid residues, the smaller pore UHPLC materials are used, but if the peptide is larger, contains more amino acid residues, or exists in a dimeric or multimeric form, then the larger pore size 300Å columns provide better separations due toimproved mass transfer.

Natural and Synthetic Peptides Column SelectionRecommended column choices as determined by system/column pressure maximum for the analysis ofnatural and synthetic peptides.

After solid phase synthesis (SPS) using a polystyrene resin such as one of the Agilent StratoSpheresproducts, the peptide is cleaved from the support and the resultant mixture is separated to obtain the targetpeptide. A high efficiency column is needed for the purification as the candidate peptide must be resolvedfrom peptides that are very similar in structure. Check www.agilent.com for further information.

DNA and RNA Oligonucleotide SeparationsThere is a renewed interest in oligonucleotides (oligos) as they are used in more and more applications,including potential therapeutics. The synthesis workflow is similar to that used for the more establishedsynthetic peptide production, i.e. an activated solid phase synthesis resin is used with sequential addition of specific nucleotides to build the desired sequence.

The nucleotide building blocks are protected at the 5’ hydroxyl end with a dimethoxytrityl (DMT) group andthe cleaved target oligo will have this protected group still attached. As DMT is hydrophobic, it is a usefulhandle that can be used for the first stage step. To increase the stability of the oligonucleotide, particularly toenzyme degradation, it may be chemically modified, for example by replacing oxygen with sulfur to producephosphorothioates.

When using chemical synthesis to produce biomolecules, the coupling efficiency of each additional cycle is never 100%. The sample, after cleavage from the solid phase synthesis support, will contain deletionsequences, oligos where one or more residues are missing, and some amount of larger oligos produced bydouble coupling or branching. The sample mixture is complex and high efficiency techniques are requiredfor analysis.

There are three UHPLC/HPLC techniques that are routinely used for oligonucleotide separations:

Trityl-on: This procedure is relatively simple to perform and separates the full-length target oligo, which stillhas the DMT group attached, from the deprotected failure sequences. The analytical information obtained is limited and this is generally considered to be a purification method.

ion-exchange separations of the trityl-off, deprotected oligos: This method uses the negativecharge on the backbone of the oligo to facilitate the separation. Resolution is good for the shorter oligos butdecreases with increasing chain length. Aqueous eluents are used but oligos are highly charged, and highconcentrations of salt are needed to achieve elution from the column.

ion-pair reversed-phase separation of the trityl-off, deprotected oligos: This technique usesorganic solvents and volatile ion-pairing agents and is suitable for LC/MS. The technique is best performedwith high efficiency particles. Conditions that fully denature the oligos and prevent association withcomplimentary sequences are required. Thus, the separation is best performed at elevated temperatures.

Agilent offers several good options for separation of amino acids, including the Agilent ZORBAX Eclipse AAAcolumn which uses an updated protocol and is specially tested using amino acids. The ZORBAX Eclipse AAAhigh efficiency column rapidly separates amino acids following an updated and improved protocol. Total analysis from injection to injection can be achieved in as little as 14 min (9 min analysis time) on shorter, 7.5 cm columns and 24 min (18 min analysis time) on the 15 cm column. Exceptional sensitivity(5 to 50 pmol with diode array or fluorescence detectors) and reliability are achieved using both OPA- and FMOC-derivatization chemistries in one fully automated procedure using the Agilent 1200 Infinity LC.The newer ZORBAX Eclipse Plus C18 column is also an excellent choice for amino acid separations.

UHPLC/HPLC TechniquesHigh-performance liquid chromatography, HPLC, is a chromatographic technique that can separate a mixture of compounds and is used in biochemistry and analytical chemistry to identify, quantify and purify the individual components of the mixture. There has been an evolution toward ultra high-performanceliquid chromatography (UHPLC) which is widely accepted for high-efficiency separations of small- to medium-sized molecules, and has been used to reduceanalysis time and/or to increase resolution. The use of UHPLC has been extended to large biomolecules with the introduction of wide pore chromatographicmedia in columns that can withstand pressures of 600 to 1200 bar.

On the following pages you will see the wide range of columns that Agilent offers for the HPLC and UHPLC separation of proteins and other biomolecules.

reversed-Phase HPLCConfidently perform high-resolution separationsReversed-phase UHPLC/HPLC separates solutes based on differences in hydrophobicity, with the leasthydrophobic peak eluting first. This high-resolution technique is capable of separating peptides, proteins and oligonucleotides that differ by only one amino acid or nucleotide residue.

Because HPLC uses organic solvents (such as acetonitrile, methanol, ethanol and propanol) it is also adenaturing technique that disrupts a biomolecule’s three-dimensional structure. This allows you to obtaininformation about a molecule’s primary structure and sequence, as well as variations in the sequence to be identified.

Agilent offers the industry’s broadest range of wide-pore reversed-phase columns, all backed by technical support experts and application chemists around the globe. This section features the followingcolumn innovations:

• ZorBAX 300Å pore silica columns – an industry first for reversed-phase protein and biomoleculeseparations – are available in 6 phases, along with a broad array of sizes. For fast UHPLC separations,we also offer a 1.8 µm particle size option that withstands pressures up to 1200 bar, and can be usedwith high-pressure instruments, such as Agilent’s 1290 Infinity LC.

• Agilent Poroshell columns feature the industry’s first solid core/porous shell particle. Our wide-porePoroshell 300 columns are ideal for fast chromatography, and are available in a variety of phases.

• Agilent PLrP-S columns contain polymer particles, and can be used to separate peptides andproteins of various sizes and DNA/macromolecular complexes. These columns are unique in that theyare 100% organic, can withstand temperatures as high as 200 °C, and can be used under conditionsfrom pH 1 to pH 14.

• Choose from a range of column sizes, particle sizes (3-8 µm for analytical separations) and pore sizes(100Å to 4000Å). Preparative columns (10-50 µm) are also available, either prepacked in columns oras bulk material.

Agilent ZORBAX 300Å StableBond columns are an ideal choice for the reproducible separations of proteinsand peptides for two key reasons. First, wide-pore, 300Å columns are necessary for an efficient separationof proteins and peptides, or other large molecules, in order to allow these analytes to completely access thebonded phase. Second, 300StableBond columns are unmatched in their durability at low pH, such as withTFA-containing mobile phases typically used for protein and peptide separations. For LC/MS separations at low pH, 300StableBond columns can also be used with formic acid and acetic acid mobile phasemodifiers. These columns are available in five different bonded phases (C18, C8, C3, CN, and Diphenyl*) for selectivity and recovery optimization of proteins and polypeptides. To further increase sample recoveryand improve efficiency for difficult proteins, 300StableBond columns can be used up to 80 °C. 300SB-C18and 300SB-C8 columns are an ideal choice for complex protein and protein digest separations. Thesecolumns are also available in capillary (0.3 and 0.5 mm id) and nano (0.075 and 0.10 mm id) dimensionsfor reversed-phase LC/MS separations of protein digests. Capillary and nano columns can be used for either 1-D or 2-D proteomics separations.

*Diphenyl is available in a 1.8 µm particle size only.

Both small and large peptides demonstrate selectivity changes at high and low pH. At high pH, due to a change in charge, all three Angiotensins can be resolved. In addition, the spectral clarity of Angiotensin I is dramatically improved at high pH with the ammonium hydroxide mobile phase. The Extend-C18 column can be used for the analysis of small peptides at high pH as well.

The Extend column can be used for high pH separations of peptides.At high and low pH, very different selectivity can result. Just bychanging pH, a complimentary method can be developed and it ispossible to determine if all peaks are resolved. The Extend columncan be used at high and low pH, so the complimentary separationcan be investigated with one column. Better MS sensitivity for thissample is also achieved at high pH.

Poroshell 300• UHPLC separations of biomolecules with superficially porous particles• 300Å pore provide high efficiency and recovery with proteins (up to 1,000 kDa)

and monoclonal antibodies• Achieve long lifetime at low pH with Poroshell 300SB; at high pH with 300Extend-C18• Optimize recovery and selectivity with four different bonded phases – 300SB-C18, 300SB-C8,

300SB-C3, and 300Extend-C18

Agilent Poroshell 300 columns are ideal for fast separations of proteins and peptides because thesuperficially porous particle allows for fast flow rates to be used while maintaining sharp, efficient peaks.Peptides and proteins are typically separated slowly to reduce the potential peak broadening of these slowdiffusing analytes. However, Poroshell columns use a superficially porous particle made with a thin layer ofporous silica, 0.25 µm thick, on a solid core of silica. This reduces the diffusion distance for proteins makingpractical rapid HPLC separations of peptides and proteins up to 500-1,000 kDA possible with 400/600 barHPLC systems, including the Agilent 1260 Infinity Bio-inert. Poroshell columns bonded with StableBondbonded phases provide excellent stability and selectivity choices with TFA and formic acid mobile phases.The Poroshell 300Extend-C18 column can be used from pH 2-11 for unique separations. These columns canbe used for analytical protein separations as well as LC/MS separations.

With narrow bore diameters of 2.1 mm, 1.0 mm, and 0.5 mm, Poroshell columns make an ideal LC/MS partner. When the sample is very limited, the 1.0 mm or 0.5 mm idPoroshell columns are an excellent choice for high sensitivity LC/MS analyses. Sensitive MS molecular weight determinations are possible with as little as 0.5 to 5 pmole ofprotein on Poroshell columns. Poroshell columns have also been used for rapid MS identification of intact proteins, even in the presence of stabilizers and tissue culture media.

Poroshell 120• 120Å pore size for shorter chain peptide mapping• UHPLC performance on 600 bar systems• Up to 90% of the efficiency of sub-2 µm• 2X the efficiency of 3.5 µm• Up to 50% less pressure than sub-2 µm columns

Agilent Poroshell 120 columns are a 2.7 µm particle with a 1.7 µm solid core and 0.5 µm porous outer layer.This small particle size provides high efficiency, similar to sub-2 µm columns, but with 40-50% less pressure.These high efficiency, high resolution columns can be used on any type of LC. The porous outer layer andsolid core limit diffusion distance and improve separation speed while the narrow particle size distributionimproves efficiency and resolution. The columns can support high pressure and multiple columns can beused for the highest resolution and efficiency possible. The smaller 120Å pore size is ideal for fast highresolution analysis of small hydrophilic peptides in protein digests.

PLrP-S• Contain durable and resilient polymer particles that deliver reproducible results over longer lifetimes• Thermally and chemically stable• Comply with USP L21 designation• Used in bioscience, chemical, clinical research, energy, environmental, food and agriculture, material

science and pharmaceutical industries• Pore sizes (100Å-4000Å) for separations of small molecules to large complexes and polynucleotides

The PLRP-S family of columns consists of a range of pore sizes and particle sizes, all with identical chemistryand fundamental adsorptive characteristics. The particles are inherently hydrophobic, therefore no bondedphase, alkyl ligand is required for reversed-phase separations. This gives a highly reproducible material thatis free from silanols and heavy metal ions. Columns within the extensive product range are suitable fornano/capillary separations, including both bottom-up and top-down proteomics, analytical separations, and preparative purifications. In addition, process columns can be packed with bulk media.

ion-exchange ChromatographyPurify proteins and other charged moleculesIon-exchange chromatography (IEX) is a highly sensitive technique that allows you to separate ions andpolar molecules based on their charge. Like SEC, IEX can be used to separate proteins in their native state.

Applying IEX to charge variant analysisDuring production and purification, antibodies can exhibit changes in charge heterogeneity as a result of amino acid substitutions, glycosylation, phosphorylation, and other post-translational or chemicalmodifications. Because these changes can impact stability and activity – or cause immunologically adversereactions – the analysis of charge heterogeneity in monoclonal antibody (MAb) preparations is critical tobiopharmaceuticals.

In protein analysis, charge variations at a given pH indicate a change in the primary molecular structure –resulting in additional forms of the protein in question. These are called isoforms (or charge variants), and can be resolved by IEX chromatography. IEX is also useful as a preparative technique.

The pages that follow describe Agilent’s family of weak and strong ion-exchangers – both anionic and cationic.

• Agilent non-porous Bio ieX columns are designed for high-resolution, high-efficiency, and high-recovery separations.

• Agilent Bio MAb columns are optimized for separating charge isoforms of monoclonal antibodies.• Agilent porous ieX columns (PL-SAX and PL-SCX) are chemically stable, and are available

in two pore sizes – allowing you to separate peptides, oligonucleotides, and very large proteins.• Bio-Monolith ieX columns are uniquely suited to separating antibodies, viruses, and DNA.

PL-SAX Strong Anion-exchange Columns• Small particles deliver excellent chromatographic performance• Wide range of particle sizes and 2 pore sizes for flexible analysis to scale-up purification• Exceptional stability for long column lifetime

PL-SAX -N(CH3)3+ is ideal for the anion-exchange HPLC separations of proteins, peptides and deprotected

synthetic oligonucleotides under denaturing conditions. The strong anion-exchange functionality, covalentlylinked to a chemically stable fully porous polymer, extends the operating pH range. In addition, the anion-exchange capacity is independent of pH. For synthetic oligonucleotides, separations using denaturing conditions of temperature, organic solvent, and high pH are all possible. PL-SAX deliversimproved chromatography for self-complementary or G-rich sequences that may associate to formaggregates or hairpin structures. The 5 µm material provides high efficiency separations of n and n-1 sequences. A wide range of particle sizes and column geometries permits analysis scale-up to purification. The strong anion-exchange functionality provides a material with exceptional chemical and thermal stability, even with sodium hydroxide eluents, leading to long column lifetime.

As phage proliferation progresses, the genomic DNA (gDNA) concentration increases as the host cells are being lysed. In the late stages offermentation, gDNA begins to degrade into fragments. These gDNA fragments cannot be easily removed by purification media, therefore it iscritical to stop the fermentation cycle prior to the degradation of the genomic DNA. The chromatogram above represents three samples takenfrom the bioreactor at 36, 158 and 191 minutes. Peak 1 represents phage, media and host cells, peak 2 the intact gDNA and peak 3 thefragmented gDNA.

Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC)Accurately determine biomolecule aggregation, fragmentation, and chemicalligation/modificationSize exclusion chromatography (SEC) is a technique for separating proteins, oligonucleotides, and othercomplex biopolymers by size using aqueous eluents.

Applying SEC to aggregation studiesThe size, type, and content of aggregates present in protein biopharmaceuticals can affect both efficacy and formulation – or worse, induce an immunogenic response. Aggregation formations occur through avariety of mechanisms, including disulfide bond formation and non-covalent interactions.

Because the size of protein aggregates, including dimers, is sufficiently different from the protein monomer,you can separate the various forms using SEC. In fact, SEC with UV or light scattering is a standardtechnique for quantifying protein aggregation.

Applying SEC to quantitation and molecular weight determinationFor proteins and other molecules of discreet molecular weight, SEC can be used to detect and quantitatemonomers, dimers, aggregates and fragments. SEC can also separate oligonucleotide mixtures.

For biopolymers of varying sizes, like starches and other polysaccharides, SEC can provide data onmolecular weight distribution and branching (with the proper detectors).

As a leading manufacturer of SEC columns and instruments for over 30 years, Agilent is continuallydeveloping new SEC products that will provide even higher resolution and quicker separations. This sectionhighlights Agilent’s broad family of SEC columns for protein biopolymer analysis:

• Bio SEC-3 and Bio SEC-5 columns are available in a variety of pore sizes, and are well suited forprotein analysis – especially when determining the presence of dimers and aggregates in therapeuticbiologicals. Note that 3 µm Bio SEC-3 columns provide higher resolution than our industry-standard 5 µm Bio SEC-5 columns.

• ProSec 300S columns work well with globular proteins under high salt conditions.• ZORBAX GF-250 and GF-450 columns are best for preparative SEC of proteins, because of their

larger column size and higher flow rates.• PL aquagel-OH columns can be used to analyze biopolymers of broad molecular weights, such as

PEGs, oligo- and polysaccharides, starches, and gums.

Pore Size Choice

The choice of media pore size will influence the resolution in SEC. As the separation is based on differences in molecular size in solution, the samplemust be able to permeate the porous structure of the particles – if the pore size is too small, the samples will be excluded from the pores and elutein the void volume of the column, and if too large then, all will be able to fully permeate the particles and so there will be very little separation.

ProSEC 300S• Mechanically robust silica particles that do not bleed during use• Single column with extended linear resolving range• Column dimensions for use with multi-detector systems

The Agilent ProSEC 300S column is specifically designed as a single column solution for globular proteinanalysis. The pore size selection and optimization provides an extended linear resolving range so that thissingle column can be used for analysis across the full range of globular proteins.

The particles are extremely robust and do not fragment during use to leach particulates. This givesexceptionally stable baselines making this column an ideal choice for use with light scattering detectors.

Two column dimensions, 7.5 mm id and 4.6 mm id, to suit multi-detector size exclusion chromatographyprovide an option for the analysis of small masses.

ZORBAX GF-250 and GF-450 Gel Filtration Columns• High efficiency and reproducibility with short analysis time• Semi-prep and prep column dimensions• Compatible with organic modifiers and denaturants• Wide usable pH range (3-8)

Agilent ZORBAX GF-250 and GF-450 size exclusion (gel filtration) columns are ideal for size separations ofproteins and other biomolecules. The separation range is 4,000-900,000 for globular proteins when usingGF-250 and GF-450 columns in series. The GF-250/GF-450 size exclusion columns have a hydrophilic diolbonded phase for high recovery of proteins (typically >90%) and a unique zirconia modification of the silicafor a pH operating range from 3-8. The GF-250 and GF-450 columns are packed with precisely sized poroussilica microspheres with narrow pore size and particle size distributions. The result is a highly efficient,rugged and reproducible size exclusion column that can be used for both analytical and preparativeseparations of proteins with flow rates of up to 3 mL/min. These columns are compatible with organicmodifiers (<25%) and denaturants in the mobile phase to reduce protein aggregation. Some commonapplications include separations of protein monomers, dimers and aggregates, desalting, protein molecularweight estimation and separations of modified proteins.

Peptides, Polypeptides, ProteinsMW <50 kDa

Initial Bonded Phase

StableBond 300SB-C8

300SB columns are wide-pore columns with unbeatable lifetime inTFA-containing mobile phases. This makes them an ideal first choicefor separations of peptides and proteins.

• C8 is an excellent starting bonded phase because of its moderatehydrophobicity

• C18 and C8 are generally selected for peptides and proteindigests but can also be used for proteins

• C3, C4 and CN are generally selected for larger, hydrophobicpolypeptides and proteins but can also be used for peptides

• PLRP-S when chemical and thermal stability are needed

Initial Separation Conditions

Mobile Phase: A: 95% H2O: 5% ACN with 0.1% TFAB: 5% H2O: 95% ACN with 0.085% TFA

Poroshell 300SB-C18

Poroshell 300SB columns use an innovative particle technology todeliver rapid protein separations. Short anaysis times with efficientpeaks are easily obtained with Poroshell columns.

• C18 is a good starting bonded phase choice with Poroshell formost peptides, polypeptides and proteins because the retention is maximized

• C8 is generally selected for moderate size proteins but can beused with polypeptides or very large proteins

• C3 is generally selected for antibodies or large proteins but canbe used for peptides and polypeptides

Start at Low pH with Simple Aqueous/Organic GradientTypically, a water/acetonitrile with 0.1% TFA gradient is used to elute all components of interest. A typical high resolution gradient on a 300Å pore size column requires 30-50 min. A Poroshell column requires a shorter analysis time and a higher flow rate and still provides exceptional resolution. To improve resolution, increase the gradient time, decrease column length, or increase flow rate.

Optimize Sample SolubilityFor best peak shape and recovery at any pH, it is important to completely solubilize a sample. Highly acidic or neutral solvents can be used withZORBAX 300StableBond and Poroshell 300SB, while neutral solvents and dilute bases can be used with ZORBAX 300Extend-C18.

Increase the TemperatureSeparations of proteins and peptides are influenced by temperature and higher column temperature can dramatically improve both resolution andrecovery of proteins and hydrophobic and aggregating peptides.

Optimize Mobile Phase pHTry Mid and High pH if Low pH does not work

If an optimized, low pH method does not provide an ideal separation, then mid or high pH mobile phase can be used. At high pH, selectivity is oftenvery different because acidic amino acids become negatively charged and some basic amino acids may lose their charge. ZORBAX 300Extend-C18 is an excellent choice for mid to high pH separation.

Reversed-Phase LC/MS MethodsLC/MS of proteins and peptides is used to provide information for protein characterization, to accurately identify post-translational modifications of proteins, and to determine the molecular weight of synthetic and natural peptides. LC/MS is also used to provide protein identification in 2-D separations for proteomics applications. Therefore, LC/MS of proteins and peptides is a critical separation area, which requires some special column and mobile phaserecommendations. In general, smaller column sizes are used for LC/MS and TFA is generally not used in mobile phase because of reduced sensitivity in theMS with this mobile phase additive.

Initial Column Choices for LC/MS Separations of Proteins and Polypeptides

Low pH Mid and High pH

Capillary columns are used for high sensitivity protein and peptide applications. The 0.5 mm id columns are used for protein and protein digest separations while the 0.3 mm id columns are most often used for protein digests. These can be analyzed at high pH with an ammoniumhydroxide mobile phase. Nano columns (0.1 and 0.075 mm id) are often used in 2-D LC/MS systems for proteomics and the initial choice is C18 bonded phase.

Analytical LC/MS applications – 2.1 mm id columns provide good sensitivity when sample size is not limited. With Poroshell columns, smaller 1 mm column ids are used.

Optimize ConditionsSome separations may require a specific buffer, ionic strength, pH, and/or temperature

Ionic Strength:

Selection of Buffers and pH:

Buffers play a key role in the optimization of separations. Phosphate buffers are typicallyused for antibodies and many biomolecules. The following are also recommended: MES,Tris, and ACES buffers. Use buffers of pH 5.0-6.5. pH can be adjusted usually by +/- 0.2units. For some specific proteins, buffers with higher pH (>pH 6.5) may be needed.Phosphoric acid, acetic acid, HCl and NaOH can be used to adjust pH.

pH gradients can also be used for elution.

Selection of Buffers and pH:

For anion-exchange, acetate and phosphatebuffers of pH 8.0-9.0 are recommended. pH canbe adjusted usually by +/- 0.2 units. For somespecific proteins, buffers with higher or lowerpH may be needed. Phosphoric acid, aceticacid, HCl and NaOH can be used to adjust pH.

pH gradients can also be used for elution.

Additives

Organic Solvents:

Acetonitrile, ethanol, methanol, and other similar solvents can be used up to 50%.

Detergents:

Non-ionic, anionic, and zwitterionic detergents can be used. Cationic detergents are not recommended.

Additives

Organic Solvents:

Acetonitrile, ethanol, methanol, and othersimilar solvents can be used up to 50%.

Detergents:

Non-ionic, cationic, and zwitterionicdetergents can be used. Anionic detergentsare not recommended.

Temperature:

Agilent Bio MAb and IEX columns are stable up to 80 °C. However, many proteins and biomolecules are heat labile. Be sure to establish thetemperature stability of your sample before routinely using high temperature for separation.

Certain ionic strength is required to sustain the function of columns. Usually, a minimal concentration of 10-20 mM salt is required. However,greater than 20 mM strength may prevent the adsorption of biomolecules onto the column. Commonly used salts are sodium and potassiumchloride and acetate. For elution, a typical salt concentration is 400-500 mM.

Note: Never use water alone for washing columns as it causes a significant increase in backpressure.

After the initial chromatogram, additional changes may be needed to improve the separation, maintain protein solubility, or to decrease sampleinteraction with the chromatographic media. The ionic strength of the mobile phase can be adjusted up or down in strength to attain an optimizedseparation. pH can also be adjusted usually + 0.2 units. If further optimization is necessary, the upward or downward range should be expanded. A change of temperature or addition of an organic solvent can also be used.

For protocols requiring additional salt, these buffers are typical:

100-150 mM sodium chloride in 50 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.0

100-150 mM sodium sulfate in 50 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.0

50-100 mM urea in 50 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.0

Other similar salts (e.g. KCl) and guanidine hydrochloride can also be used

pH Range:

2.0-8.5

5-10% ethanol (or other similar solvents) in 50 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.0

5% DMSO in 50 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.0

Temperature:

Typically, SEC separations are run at 20-30 °C. Separation of proteins and peptides may require higher temperature to improve both resolutionand recovery of proteins and hydrophobic peptides.

Maximum temperature of Bio SEC columns is 80 °C

High Sensitivity Capillary Column Methods

Mobile Phase Considerations

Low pH

TFA is generally not used for LC/MS separations of proteins andpeptides. The first step is normally to replace TFA with 0.1 to 1%formic acid. Acetic acid, up to 1% can also be used as an alternativemobile phase modifier. At low pH, the best separation may still beobtained with TFA in the mobile phase. In some cases, the TFA can bedisplaced post-column with an alternative acid, such as propionic acid.

Mid and High pH

LC/MS can also be done at high pH with 10-20 mM NH4OH as amobile phase additive.

MicroBore (1.0 mm id) Columns• High sensitivity for small sample sizes• Compatible with LC/MS interfaces• Wide variety of bonded phases• Silica and polymeric particles

Agilent MicroBore (1.0 mm id) columns are a good choice when sample sizes are limited. They can improvedetection limits 5 times over 2.1 mm id columns when the same sample mass is used. This increase insensitivity can be critical. MicroBore columns use low flow rates (typically ~ 50 µL/min). Therefore, thesecolumns are ideal for use with detectors requiring low flow rates such as some mass spectrometers andwith capillary LC systems.

Optimum performance is achieved when MicroBore columns are used with UHPLC/HPLC Microboresystems. A wide variety of bonded phases is available for use up to 400 bar including StableBond, 300SB-C18, 300SB-C8, and Poroshell columns. Polymeric reversed-phase, PLRP-S, and ion-exchange PL-SAX and PL-SCX are also available for applications requiring exceptionally stable wide pore particles.Guard columns are also now available with an adjustable tube stop depth to provide a perfect zero deadvolume connection every time.

PL-SAX and PL-SCX for Prep to Process• Ion-exchange purifications over a wider pH range extend applications• HPLC flow rates and rapid equilibration reduce purification cycle times• Large pore size for improved mass transfer delivers high speed, high resolution purifications

These rigid, strong ion-exchange materials are extremely hydrophilic and are designed for purification ofbiomolecules. The PL-SAX and PL-SCX materials are totally polymeric and are chemically and thermallystable over a full range of HPLC conditions. The strong ion-exchange functionalities, covalently linked to achemically stable polymer, facilitate ion-exchange purifications over a wider pH range. This stability can beexploited for column sanitation and clean-up. Thermal stability also enables the use of denaturing conditionsand stabilizing/solubilizing agents for the purification of target compounds, as encountered in thepurification of synthetic oligonucleotides with self-complementary sequences.

Both the 1000Å and 4000Å wide-pore materials are mechanically stable and robust and can be operatedover a wide range of linear velocities, with fast loading of dilute solutions and wash cycles. HPLC flow ratesand rapid equilibration reduces purification cycle times.

Packing in dynamic axial compression (DAC) column hardware is straightforward and high efficiencycolumns are achieved with excellent reproducibility and lifetimes. The 1000Å pore size is for high-capacitypurifications and the 4000Å gigaporous particles with improved mass transfer are intended for largebiomolecules and high-speed, high-resolution purifications.

Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and size exclusion chromatography (SEC) are names applied to themost popular technique for measuring the molecular weight distribution (MWD) of natural and syntheticpolymers, a property that affects many of the physical parameters of materials such as strength, toughnessand chemical resistance. GPC and SEC are liquid chromatographic techniques that separate individualpolymer chains on the basis of their size in solution and not on their chemistry. Gel permeationchromatography (GPC) is the name used to describe the analysis of polymers in organic solvents, such astetrahydrofuran. Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) is the name used to describe the analysis of polymersin water and water-based solvents, such as buffer solutions. GPC/SEC is the only established method forobtaining a comprehensive understanding of a polymer’s molecular weight distribution.

GPC/SEC ColumnS and STandardS

The key to successful GPC/SEC separations is the correct choice of columns. The comprehensive range ofAgilent products for GPC/SEC has been designed to cover virtually all polymer analysis application areas,and to make selection for the correct column, solvent, and calibration standard fast and reliable.

Agilent’s PLgel GPC series of columns are for polymer applications using organic solvents. PLgel is a highlycross-linked, porous polystyrene/divinylbenzene matrix, which is recognized as a market leader in GPCcolumn technology. PLgel materials have high pore volume and high-efficiency to maximize resolution. Their unequalled solvent compatability makes for easy transfer between polar and non-polar eluents, and outstanding physical rigidity provides extended lifetimes that maximize downtime. For more information and full ordering details, see

Agilent’s PL aquagel-OH series of columns provide a chemically and physically stable matrix for reliableaqueous SEC separations. The columns are packed with macroporous copolymer beads with an extremelyhydrophilic polyhydroxyl functionality. The “neutral” surface and the capability to operate across a widerange of eluent conditions provide for high performance analyses of compounds with neutral, ionic, andhydrophobic moieties, alone or in combination. PL aquagel-OH is available for analytical and preparativeapplications. For more information and full ordering details, see

Polymer standards for GPC/SECAgilent manufactures the highest quality polymer standards with extremely narrow polydispersity and thewidest molecular weight range commercially available. These quality polymer standards are supplied withextensive characterization data utilizing a variety of independent techniques (e.g. light scattering andviscometry) and high performance GPC to verify polydispersity and assign the peak molecular weight (Mp).

EasiVial – for organic and aqueous calibration. EasiVial is the fastest and most convenient method to deliveran accurate 12-point column calibration. EasiVial eliminates tedious weight procedures for improvedcalibration accuracy and reduces solvent dispensing to limit risks associated with handling solvents.

EasiCal – for organic solvents. EasiCal packs are pre-prepared for a no-fuss process. Two different combs,each with ten detachable spatulas, support a mixture of five polymer standards. The cost-effective format isdesigned to save money.

Individual standards and kits – an extensive range of polymer standard kits of different chemistries designedto match specific column sets are available, as well as individual standards in various pack sizes. For moredetails about Agilent’s calibration standards for GPC/SEC, see page 530.

Choosing an eluent for GPC/SEC

Question answer recommendation Comments1. What is the sample soluble in? Water or water buffer

with up to 50% methanolAgilent PL aquagel-OH Best choice for water-based applications

but cannot accommodate organics apart frommethanol up to 50%

Many polymers are only soluble in a small number of solvents. This is the key question when developing methods for analyzing polymers.The solvents mentioned here are all commoneluents employed in GPC/SEC.

Typical organic solventsuch as THF, chloroform, toluene

Agilent PLgel orAgilent PlusPore

PLgel are the workhorse columns, PlusPore columnsare an alternative

Organic/water mixtures orpolar organics such as,DMF, NMP

Agilent PolarGel PolarGel is a smaller column range than PLgel or PL aquagel-OH columns but is suited to mixtures of organics and water

The following questions will help you find the recommended columns and standards for any given application, as well as system parameters such asinjection volumes.

Question answer recommendation Comments2. What is the expected

molecular weight?High (up to several millions)

Aqueous solventsPl aquagel-oh miXEd-h 8 µmor combination ofPL aquagel-OH 40 and 60 15 µm

The 15 µm column combination is best only where sample viscosity is very high, otherwise 8 µm columns give greater resolution

It may seem strange to ask this question, but inGPC/SEC the resolution ofa column is related to theresolving range. Knowingsomething of the expectedmolecular weight of asample helps to choose thebest column that will giveoptimum results.

Organic solventsPlgel 10 µm miXEd-B orPLgel 20 µm MIXED-A

The PLgel MIXED-A column resolves higher than the PLgelMIXED-B but at lower efficiency due to larger particle size

Mixed solventsPolarGel

No PolarGel column available for this molecular weight range.Contact your local GPC/SEC expert for advice

Intermediate (up tohundreds ofthousands)

Aqueous solventsPl aquagel-oh miXEd-m 8 µm

A wide-ranging column that covers most water-soluble polymers

Organic solventsPlgel 5 µm miXEd-C orPLgel 5 µm MIXED-D, PolyPoreor ResiPore

The PLgel columns are the most widely applicable for the majority of applications; PolyPore and ResiPore columnsare alternatives

Mixed solventsPolarGel-m

GPC/SEC ColumnS and STandardS

Setting up the GPC/SEC system

Question answer recommendation Comments3. How many columns to use? Depends on the particle

size of the columnsParticle size 20 µm use 4 columns Increased number of columns required

for large particle sizes to make up forlow efficiencies

The greater the particle size of themedia in the column (which isdependent on the expectedmolecular weight of the samples), thelower the resolution and the morecolumns are required to maintain thequality of the results. For highermolecular weight samples, largerparticles are necessary to reduce thedanger of shear degradation ofsamples during analysis.

Particle size 13 µm use 3 columnsParticle size 10 µm use 3 columnsParticle size 8 µm use 2 columnsParticle size 5 µm use 2 columnsParticle size 3 µm use 2 columns

Question answer recommendation Comments4. What size injection volume? Depends on the particle

size of the columnsParticle size 20 µm use 200 µL injection Smaller particle sizes require smaller

loops to minimize band broadeningThe injection volume required isdependent on the particle size of thecolumn – smaller particles needlower injection volumes to minimizedead volume. Larger injectionvolumes allow the introduction ofhigh molecular weight samples atlower concentrations, reducingviscosity and ensuring a qualitychromatogram is obtained.

Particle size 13 µm use 200 µL injectionParticle size 10 µm use 200 µL injectionParticle size 5 µm use 100 to 200 µL injectionParticle size 3 µm use 20 µL injection

what standards should i use?Standards shown in bold are the best initial choice

Question answer recommendation Comments5. What is the eluent? Water or water buffer with up to 50%

methanolPolyethylene glycol (PEG)/oxide(PEo) or polysaccharides (SAC)

These standards perform in all water-based systems, PEG/PEO inconvenient Agilent EasiVial format

Standards are polymers, so the choice of standard mainly reflectssolubility in the chosen eluents.

Typical organic solvent such as THF,chloroform, toluene

Polystyrene (PS) orpolymethylmethacrylate (PMMA)

Polystyrene is the most commonlyused standard in convenient EasiVial format

Organic/water mixtures or polarorganics such as DMF, NMP

Polyethylene glycol/oxide orpolymethylmethacrylate

Polar standards perform well

Plgel miXEd Gel Calibration CurvesMIXED gel calibration curves are designed to be linear over a specified molecular weight range, ensuring that the same degree of resolution is achievedacross the full operating range of the column. The particle size of the packing and porosity of a particular MIXED gel column are carefully matched to theMW range and application, thus optimizing performance and eliminating the effects of shear degradation. Resolution in GPC is controlled by the slope of the calibration curve and the particle size of the packing material. Agilent has scientifically determined the minimum number of MIXED gel columns requiredto perform accurate MWD determinations based on specific resolution (Rsp). Thus you can have complete confidence in the accuracy and precision of thecalculated data.

• Obtain an instant improvement in data quality• No need for conditioning, saving time and solvent costs• Maximize the potential of light scattering detectors

The PLgel MIXED-LS series is a PS/DVB packing using an innovative proprietary suspension polymerizationtechnique to virtually eliminate nano-particle leakage. A startling improvement is achieved immediately inthe quality of light scattering data obtained with PLgel MIXED-LS columns in place of conventional GPCcolumns. The light scattering chromatograms shown here were obtained after flushing the columns for one hour in THF at 1 mL/min. A polystyrene standard (Mp 210,000) was injected at 1 mg/mL in order to illustrate the dramatic improvement in signal-to-noise with the PLgel MIXED-LS column.

The performance of PLgel MIXED-LS columns has been matched to PLgel 20 µm MIXED-A and PLgel 10 µmMIXED-B columns in terms of calibration, column efficiency, wide solvent compatibility, and operatingtemperature. MIXED-LS are also ideal for online viscosity detection, minimizing the risk of capillary blockage,and can be used with regular PLgel guard columns that are packed with rigid low pore size gels with noparticle bleed.

• Use about 70% less solvent and save money• Store less solvent and increase operator safety• High performance comparable to Agilent's conventional id columns

For reduced solvent cost and consumption, use industry standard PLgel MiniMIX mixed gel columns in 250 x 4.6 mm narrow bore dimensions. These narrow bore columns offer high performance, excellentsolvent compatibility and mechanical stability. PLgel MiniMIX columns can be used with conventional GPC equipment.

To maintain the same linear velocity through the column, the volumetric flow rate must be reduced to 0.3 mL/min in line with the column cross sectional area, resulting in significantly lower solvent consumption.Sample loading should also be scaled down in line with reduced column volume, and system dead volumeshould be minimized to avoid excessive band broadening.

• Excellent column efficiency provides optimum resolution• High loading can isolate mg amounts for further study• Over 10 times scale up permits efficient quantification

Preparative GPC is generally employed to fractionate polymers, isolate components in a polymer formulation or simplify mixtures of relatively small molecules in complex matrices. Mixtures of materials are easily separated on the basis of size, preferably in a low boiling organic solvent. They are then collectedas a series of discrete fractions and isolated by simple evaporation of the solvent.

PLgel preparative columns are packed with the same rigid, high performance media as the analyticalcolumns. The 10 µm particle provides high column efficiency (> 25,000 p/m) for optimum resolution andloading characteristics. PLgel 25 mm id preparative columns offer over 10 times scale-up compared to the7.5 mm analytical columns. The increased id and column volume permit even higher loading. With lowmolecular weight materials, sample concentration can also be significantly increased, enabling productionof milligram quantities of very pure material. The actual loading is ultimately controlled by the sample and itsmolecular weight.

Columns for Special GPC/SEC ApplicationsEnviroPrep• High sample loading ensures effective trace analysis• Simple clean-up procedure saves sample preparation costs• Optimized particle size distribution provides high resolution

EnviroPrep columns permit a simple, one stage clean-up as part of a methodology to determine pesticides in many organic matrices. The higher molecular weight fractions such as lipids, polymers, natural resins and dispersed high molecular weight components are easily eliminated in the GPC analysis.

Preparative GPC for soil extract clean-up is described in EPA Method 3640A using 300 x 25 mm and 150 x 25 mm columns to give higher sample loading and fraction yields, which is particularly useful for low levels of pollutants. Low pore size EnviroPrep columns are ideal for this method. The columns have 10 µm particles with 100Å pore sizes for high resolution, with an exclusion limit of 4000 g/mol. The preparative columns offer good resolution and high loading through optimization of the particle size distribution.

Pl hFiPgel• Optimized separation range delivers high performance with no artifacts• Highly durable packing prolongs column lifetime• Low operating pressure reduces system wear and unnecessary downtimes

Hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) is used as a solvent in GPC for the analysis of important industrial polymerssuch as polyesters, polyamides and polylactide/glycolide copolymers. For greatly improved performance inextremely polar solvents such as HFIP and trifluoroethanol, we have developed novel "multipore"technology to produce PL HFIPgel, a PS/DVB packing featuring a monodisperse particle size, high porevolume, and high resolution.

Using PL HFIPgel avoids issues associated with conventional packings and HFIP, such as excessivecurvature of calibration curves, dislocations/shoulders on peaks for polydisperse samples, and poorresolution in the low MW region.

Column efficiency is guaranteed > 30,000 p/m and the columns are very durable, with a maximumoperating pressure of 145 bar (2030 psi). They are packed and tested in methanol but shipped ready-to-use in HFIP.

PL HFIPgel columns with 7.5 mm id normally operate at 1 mL/min. However, the 4.6 mm id columns run at0.3 mL/min, providing a 70% reduction in solvent consumption with consequent savings in the cost ofbuying and disposing of solvents.

MW range for PL HFIPgel columns is 2,000,000 g/mol (PMMA in THF).

PolarGel• Medium polarity surface and high mechanical stability• Operate in a wide range of solvents and solvent combinations• Available in two resolving ranges, PolarGel-L and PolarGel-M

With polar polymers, highly polar groups can lead to non-specific interactions and secondary separationmechanisms when using polar solvents and traditional non-polar styrene/divinylbenzene columns. Additives and/or column conditioning are normally required to reduce these interactions. PolarGel has no need for these interventions, and also avoids the interactions and secondary effects that producechromatogram distortions.

These PolarGel "mixed bed" columns have a medium polarity surface and high mechanical stability. They arecapable of operating in a wide range of solvents and solvent combinations, greatly enhancing your ability toanalyze polar polymers that are not necessarily water soluble. PolarGel is available in two resolving rangesto meet your precise requirements.

PlusPoreThe PlusPore range has an increased pore volume that provides high resolution for specific applications. The high stability media permits the use of a wide range of organic solvents with accuracy and precision so that there is no distortion of the MW distribution shape.

The PlusPore series of columns has been specifically designed for high resolution GPC, and represents the very latest in GPC column technology. These novel packing materials are based on the industrystandard, highly cross-linked polystyrene/divinylbenzene (PS/DVB), for the widest applicability and solventcompatibility. Each is made using a novel polymerization process to produce particles that exhibit a specific,controlled pore structure for optimum GPC performance. Typical applications include resins, condensationpolymers, prepolymers, and oligomers.

For high resolution polymer analysis, the PolyPore, ResiPore, MesoPore, and OligoPore columns of thePlusPore product series exhibit a wide pore size distribution with near linear calibration curves covering anextended molecular weight range. These so-called "multipore" structures have increased pore volumecompared to regular PS/DVB packing materials. This results in very high resolution GPC columns designedfor specific application areas. The highly cross-linked porous particles provide excellent chemical andphysical stability and permit easy transfer across the full range of organic solvents with little change in theshape of the calibration curve or the efficiency of the columns. As this multipore column technology doesnot require the combination of individual pore size packing materials, the result is high accuracy andprecision without any artifacts in the shape of the molecular weight distribution.

Aqueous SEC of PolymersPl aquagel-oh SECAqueous size exclusion chromatography (SEC) is widely used for the determination of molecular weightdistributions of a variety of synthetic and naturally occurring water-soluble polymers, and separations ofoligomers and small molecules. The requirement to eliminate ionic and hydrophobic effects makes aqueousSEC very demanding.

The PL aquagel-OH series provides a chemically and physically stable matrix for reliable aqueous SECseparations. The columns are packed with macroporous copolymer beads with an extremely hydrophilicpolyhydroxyl functionality. The "neutral" surface and the capability to operate across a wide range of eluentconditions provide for high performance analyses of compounds with neutral, ionic, and hydrophobicmoieties, alone or in combination. PL aquagel-OH is available for analytical and preparative applications.

Optimizing Conditions for Aqueous SEC with PL aquagel-OH ColumnsDue to the complex nature of water-soluble polymers, it is often necessary to modify the eluent in order to avoid sample-to-sample and sample-to-column interactions which can result in poor aqueous SECseparations. The excellent stability of the PL aquagel-OH packing material allows the eluent to be tailored to suit the polymer, while retaining the high column efficiency. For ionic interactions, the eluent can be modified by the addition of salt and/or the adjustment of pH. For water soluble polymers with ahydrophobic character, only the addition of a weak organic solvent (methanol) is required to inhibithydrophobic interactions.

For organic and aqueous GPC/SEC column calibration, this premier product is the quickest and mostconvenient method to deliver an accurate 12-point column calibration.

The key to achieving baseline separation from polymer mixtures, and therefore eliminating doubt and errors,is in selecting only the narrowest polydispersity polymers. This is where Agilent polymer standards excel anddeliver, as shown in the chromatograms.

The EasiVial standards kit is a pre-prepared, time saving product for rapid and reliable GPC columncalibration. EasiVial kits contain three vials, each with a mixture of four accurately pre-weighed polymerstandards, providing a 12-point GPC calibration in just three injections. The mass of each polymer in the vialis accurately known, so that upon addition of a fixed volume of eluent, the solution is prepared at a preciseconcentration. EasiVial is ideal for both conventional and multi detector GPC calibration. Simply prepare andmanually inject, or transfer to autosampler vials, or place directly into a compatible autosampler.

Every EasiVial kit contains 30 vials (ten of each type) that are color-coded for easy identification and areavailable in 4 or 2 mL vials making them suitable for most autosamplers. The kits are available forpolystyrene (PS), polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polyethylene glycol/oxide (PEG/PEO) and polyethyleneglycol (PEG). For added value, a Tri-Pack (90 vials) is offered, extending reproducibility.

Polymethylmethacrylate• Many solvent options increase applicability• Stringent quality control improves performance• Proprietary manufacturing methods ensure consistent supply

Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) standards are extremely versatile as they can be used for organic GPC with a wide range of medium polarity eluents, such as tetrahydrofuran, toluene, methyl ethyl ketone,and ethyl acetate. They also work well with more polar organic eluents, for example dimethylformamide,dimethylacetamide, and hexafluoroisopropanol. The MWs are selected to provide equidistant calibrationpoints for greater accuracy, covering from 500-1.5 million MW. Every kit contains 0.5 g of ten differentmolecular weight standards.

Polyethylene Glycol/oxide• Simple-to-use kit form• Combines glycols and oxides to extend the MW range and cover more applications• MWs selected to provide equidistant calibration points for greater accuracy

These hydrophilic polymers are suitable for both aqueous SEC and organic GPC using the majority of polarorganic solvents. The oxides are available in high molecular weights, while the glycols cover the lowermolecular weight range. The two types are chemically similar so they can be used together across a widermolecular weight range, with aqueous and organic polymers from 106-1 million MW. Every kit contains 0.2 g or 0.5 g of ten different molecular weight standards.
